D
Where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
DA
Where have you been, my darling young one?
GD
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
GD
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways
GD
stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
GD
been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
GD
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
DA
And it's a hard, and it's a hard,
DG
it's a hard, and it's a hard
DAGG/F#G/ED
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
D
And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
DA
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
GD
I heard the sound of a thunder, that roared out a warnin'
GD
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
GD
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin'
GD
Heard ten thousand whispering and nobody listenin
GD
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'
GD
the song of a poet who died in the gutter
GD
the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
DA
And it's a hard, and it's a hard,
DG
it's a hard, and it's a hard, hard, hard hard
DAGG/F#G/ED
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
D
What'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
DA
what'll you do now, my darling young one?
GD
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-falling
GD
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest dark forest
GD
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
GD
Where pellets of poison are flooding their waters
GD
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
GD
the executioner's face is always well hidden
GD
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
GD
Where black is the color, where none is the number
GD
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
GD
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it
GD
Then I'll stand in the ocean until I start sinking
GD
But I'll know my song well before I start singing
DA
And it's a hard, and it's a hard,
DG
it's a hard, and it's a ha ha ha ha hard
DAGG/F#G/ED
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
DA
And it's a hard, and it's a hard,
DG
it's a hard, and it's so ha so ha hard
DAGG/F#G/ED
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
